Former Miss Universe Sushmita Sen won many hearts as a top Bollywood heroine in the late '90s and early '00s.

While the actress, who acted in several blockbusters, hasn't appeared in any Hindi films in the recent past (her last appearance was in Srijit Mukherjee's Bengali-language feature Nirbaak, 2014), she's quite active on social networks.

She has nearly 2.5 million followers on Twitter and, on Monday night, the Biwi No. 1 actress decided to join Instagram too. Within hours, her following on the photo-sharing site had reached 6000.

Sen also shared a video of her two daughters, Renee and Alisah singing. A single mother, she is known to be one of the most outspoken and convention-defying actresses around.
